Similar names: Anthony Bello *AKA* The Italian Stallion, Smoking Stallion, The Black Stallion Sets Sail
Frederic Yarm created the Italian Stallion for the Winter/Spring 2016 menu at Loyal Nine in Cambridge, Massachusetts, as a low-proof option modeled on Michael McIlroy's Rome With a View, with Avèze gentian liqueur in place of Campari and passion fruit for a tropical note. The name came from a mix of Roman themes and cheesy movie titles. In 2020 the drink appeared as a guest cocktail at Paper Plane in San Jose, California.
